Meet the breeder

I'm Maggie E., the breeder behind Finnabair-Anu Russell Terriers located in Fort Myers, FL. I am a veterinarian, so the health of the dogs I breed is very important. Along with health, I breed for temperament and conformation. I have imported dogs from top breeders all over the world to incorporate into the breeding program. The dogs and puppies are raised as part of the family, so the breeding program is a small scale operation with typically 1-2 litters per year. Our focus is on quality as opposed to quantity.

Q. & A. with Maggie

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are white and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Maggie

Maggie has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Together, you’ll choose the puppy that’s right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

Price

Puppy prices include a $2,500 final payment, before taxes & fees.

“Puppy prices are the same regardless of if the puppy is going to a pet home or show home as the same amount of dedication, socialization, grooming, and health testing is performed for each puppy regardless of their destination. We do not ask for deposits as I don't want anyone to feel obligated to take on a puppy if their circumstances change in the future.”

Contract & health guarantee

Maggie may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase.

    Maggie was awesome. You can tell she cares immensely about her puppies. She personally delivered our beautiful girl to our home and we have kept in touch since.

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
